lyrics

Love is lovely with lovely creatures
But with humans it’s complicated
Up and down is the normal pattern
Love and hate are so interrelated

Welcome the pain and pleasure of love
You might as well let it in
You’ll be dancing on a sugar cloud of butter frosting
Then get hit by a rolling pin

It’s no pain no gain in affairs of the heart
That muscle needs its scar tissue
Just when you think you’ve found your soulmate
Your soulmate has another point of view

It’s like the weather these days, one day it’s sixty, the next its negative nine
It’s not personal to you it’s just a byproduct of the design

Cause humans are funny and humans are strange
Predictably unpredictable
Up is down and down is up and any way you turn
You won’t pull my eyes under your wool
